Michele Maggioni

Michele Maggioni was an Italian Navy officer. In 1992, he attempted to convince Lega Nord MP Pietro Bosco to drop his investigation into the Italian Navy's use of depleted uranium bullets during the Gulf War, as Bosco's desire to help his cancer-sick friend Massimo Lorenzon threatened to discredit the military. Ultimately, Maggioni sabotaged the case by giving Lorenzon aid at the best clinic in Europe at the navy's expense, leading to Lorenzon not attending the Defense Commission meeting, and the case falling through.
